PCS 1900 - Ericsson's turnkey solution for personal communications services

摘要

The current trend of the wireless world - the evolution from mainly business user applications to broader consumer usage - is now becoming a reality in mature markets around the globe. Consumer demand and advancing technologies have led to the emergence of "personal communications services", or PCS systems as they are more often referred to. In North America in particular, Ericsson's GSM-based PCS 1900 and D-AMPS 1900 systems will be the keys to successful mass-market deployment of PCS, focusing on high subscriber penetration/high capacity, advanced services, and short time-to-market capabilities. The author describes the GSM-based PCS 1900 system, its features and the advantages it offers the operator both now and in the future.
